Nut Cookie Tartlets
These Nut Cookie Tartlets are a wonderful combination of buttery cookies and a rich nutty filling. They are easy to make and can be prepared ahead of time, making them the perfect addition to your holiday baking list.
Ingredients:
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup finely chopped nuts (walnuts or pecans work great)
- 1 cup brown sugar, packed
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Powdered sugar for dusting (optional)
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease or line mini muffin tins with paper liners.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
- Add the flour and salt to the butter mixture, mixing until just combined. The dough should be soft and slightly sticky.
- Using your hands, take small amounts of the dough and press them into the bottom and up the sides of the mini muffin tins to form tartlet shells.
- In another bowl, whisk together the brown sugar, eggs, vanilla extract, and finely chopped nuts until well combined.
- Fill each tartlet shell with the nut mixture, being careful not to overfill.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 15-18 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the filling is set.
- Allow the nut tartlets to cool slightly in the tins before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Once cool, dust with powdered sugar if desired, and serve. Enjoy!
